The summit will be held at Marina Bay Sands, Singapore, on the 5th and 6th September 2012, uniting the recruitment industry in and around Singapore, Hong Kong, Australia, Japan and the other main Asia Pacific jurisdictions. These hubs are among the fastest growing recruitment marketplaces in the world and The Global Recruiter’s summit provides a unique opportunity for recruitment professionals in the area to share expertise and experience. The two-day summit includes plenary sessions, masterclasses and a selection of seminar tracks, while simultaneously providing the opportunity to investigate supportive products and services.

Bond’s sponsorship of the event demonstrates its ongoing commitment to supporting business growth in this region. Indeed, in the past 12 months alone, Bond has seen a 24% revenue increase across Asia Pacific, following its expanding network of local offices since opening its first in Hong Kong in 2006, and the development and localisation of its benchmark recruitment software – Bond Adapt – for the Asian market.

Bond Adapt is already in wide use globally and this latest version has been most recently awarded “Highly Commended” for Best Innovation in The Asia Pacific Global Recruiter Industry Awards 2012, principally due to its localisation, scalability, platform independence and inherent flexibility. Bond will showcase the new version of Bond Adapt at the summit, which is available in Japanese, Chinese and Korean and has been specifically tailored for the legislative requirements of local markets – a first for global recruitment software.

Steve Russell, CEO, Bond International Software, comments, “The Global Recruiter is providing enormous support to the AsiaPAC recruitment market by facilitating the development of connections and networks of shared knowledge that are rapidly developing.. Having been involved in the global recruitment industry for nearly four decades and being established in the Asia Pacific region for many years now, we welcome the opportunity to meet leading firms and discuss their immediate needs and ambitions.”
